Cambridge hosts many outdoor events each year. Accessible mats can lay over unpaved terrain to ensure that more people can enjoy the beautiful green space of these events. These mats support families with strollers, wheelchairs, and other mobility aids.

Come meet your neighbors for some casual painting. We'll have all the supplies -- just bring your creativity. For those who are interested, you can contribute your mini painting to our September Great Big Tiny Art Show Gallery.
